Christi JuniorXenoblade 2 reaching 2.7 million copies sold is actually kinda amazing (remember, Nintendo of America bitterly resisted even bringing the game to the US), and it's pretty much guaranteed to remain the best-selling Xeno game ever. Anyone who claimed that Xenoblade 3 would sell better because of the nerfed fanservice should officially admit that he's retarded, and then kill himself.
The Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze port selling 4.6 million and Pikmin 3 selling 2.4 million shows just how much being on the Wii U hurt those games.
Kid Icarus: Uprising, the best game on the 3DS, only having sold 1.37 million is tragic.
All those incredibly shitty mainline Pokemon games on the Switch selling 15-25 million is REALLY tragic.
@Blouie It must have benefited greatly from excellent word of mouth - I don't think I've ever heard anyone say a bad thing about that game (except for GameSpot, which gave the Wii U original a 6/10).
@ChristiJunior It's awesome that Tropical Freeze ended up doing so well on the switch. I hope Retro can make another sequel after they're done with Metroid Prime 4.
